Yes if you are sick with a cold it MAY end up that your dog may catch it! My cat got sick from me once. I had a really bad cold and it caught it. If you have an animal and you have a cold it probably will catch it. Animals usully catch colds not a lot of other things they can catch from you!


What kind of antibiotics are good for cats colds?

None. A cold, in a cat as in a human, is caused by viruses. Antibiotics do not help virus-caused diseases. Your vet may prescribe amoxycillin in cases where he believes there is a bacterial component. The amount of any prescription will, of course, depend on the weight of the cat, and you should not try to guess the amount yourself.
